  Pericyclic Reaction Chemistry
Cycloaddition and the reverse process, retrocycloaddion, can be observed in the reaction between 1,3-butadiene and ethene to give cyclohexene.
Cycloaddition is popular in the synthetic methodology when attempting to make natural products and pharmaceutical agents with involved stereochemistry because the reaction can determine the relative configuration of up to four chiral centres in a single reaction.
The FMO argument is that the LUMO and the HOMO of ethene are phase mismatched and cycloaddition is symmetry forbidden.

The reverse of a cycloaddition is called cycloreversion and proceeds by a ring cleavage and conversion of two sigma-bonds to two pi-bonds.
The most common cycloaddition reaction is the [4+2] cyclization known as the Diels-Alder reaction.
The common [4+2] cycloaddition known as the Diels-Alder reaction proceeds stereospecifically in a suprafacial fashion, but the [14+2] cycloaddition in equation 3 is antarafacial with respect to the polyene.

 V.P.Ananikov, "Ab initio study of the [4+2] cycloaddition reactions"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The cycloaddition step leading to six-membered ring allene was found to be the key stage of the process.
Besides the first cycloaddition step, 1,2-H shifts of Pathway II are also sensitive to the presence of substituents.
Thus, the main differences between intermolecular and intramolecular reactions are: lower barriers of the cycloaddition and the first 1,2-hydrogen shift stages due to activation entropy contribution and alkyl ring stabilization effects.

 Asymmetric 1,3-Dipolar Cycloaddition
The achievement of a catalytic 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of a nitrile oxide was rather difficult because the reagent is usually too unstable to be isolated and must be generated in situ.
The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxide using a catalytic amount (0.2 molar amount) of (R,R)-DIPT was examined with special attention directed to the order of addition and the molar ratio of the reagents.
The catalytic asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrone 4 to an achiral allyl alcohol (1) also proceeded enantioselectively when a catalytic amount of (R,R)-DIPT was used as a chiral auxiliary to afford cis-isoxazolidine 5 in good optical yield.

 Examples Of Cycloaddition/Elimination Reactions
Many 2+2 cycloadditions are thought to proceed in this manner, especially in more polar solvents which stabilise the intermediate zwitterions.
Diels Alder cycloaddition gives the final product (note how in this transition state, one of the forming C-C bonds forms at a significantly faster rate than the other, it being "tethered" by the adjacent five membered ring, whilst the other end is more floppy).

 Synthesis of Heterocycles Using Tandem Cyclization Processes

Cycloaddition of the initially formed dipole across the pendant indole pi-system [11] would be expected to result in the simultaneous generation of the CD-rings of the aspidosperma skeleton [12].
The intramolecular cycloaddition behavior of the incipient isobenzofurans in response to the presence of a C=O group is striking.

The number of participating π-electrons in each component is given in brackets preceding the name, and the reorganization of electrons may be depicted by a cycle of curved arrows - each representing the movement of a pair of electrons.
Cycloaddition reactions and sigmatropic rearrangements both involve pairs of σ-bond-making events (or a coupled bond-making & bond-breaking) associated with a π-electron system.
Although cycloaddition reactions are concerted (no intermediate species are formed), the two new bonds are not necessarily formed in a synchronous fashion.

In a [4+2] cycloaddition reaction, new bonds will form between the terminal carbons of the diene and the alkene carbons of the dienophile.
To identify the reactants in a [4+2] cycloaddition reaction, identify the carbons of the dienophile (they will be the two carbons in a six-member ring which are opposite to the double bond in the product) and mentally split the bonds, separating the carbon skeletons of the diene and the dienophile.

Cycloaddition of 3-(4-acetylphenyl)sydnone (1) with DMAD gave dimethyl 1-(4-acetylphenyl)-1H-pyrazole-3,4-dicarboxylate (2), which on bromination yielded the corresponding monobromoacetyl (3) and dibromoacetyl (4) derivatives.
Both compounds 3 and 4 on reaction with thiourea and thioacetamide afforded the 2-amino- (5) and the 2-methyl- (6) thiazole derivatives respectively, while compound 3 on reaction with 2-aminothiazole gave the imidazothiazole 7.

Dipolar cycloaddition chemistry has found many useful synthetic applications, particularly with respect to the preparation of compounds with new chiral centers.
Beyond the ability of the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction to produce heterocycles, its importance extends to two other areas of organic synthesis, both of which are included in the current volume.
Second, many 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions have the ability to generate rings (and the functionality derived from transformations of such rings) containing several contiguous stereocenters in one synthetic operation.

The intramolecular alkyne and CC-CH=X units may undergo either [4+2] or [3+2] cycloaddition pathways depending on the nature of X. Involving enynes (X=CH) as substrates results in [4+2] cycloaddition reaction while in the case of heteroatom substituted molecules (X=O, S, NH) the energetically favored pathway starts with [3+2] cycloaddition.
Whereas 1,2-C shift and [3+2] cycloaddition are unlikely due to high activation energies calculated for the 4-TS and 8-TS.
Analyzing both MP2 and B3LYP energy surfaces the same conclusions can be drawn: 1) for heteroatom-containing molecules the [3+2] cycloaddition pathway is preferred over the sequence of [4+2] cycloaddition and 1,2-C shift; 2) for the enynes both [3+2] cycloaddition and 1,2-C sift are rather unlikely.

 Photon-assisted cycloaddition
We have seen that the thermal cycloaddition of two ethenes is “forbidden” because the energy of the reactants goes up significantly as the reactants (two ethenes) approach each other.
We reach this conclusion through the use of the correlation diagram, which correlates or joins up orbitals of the reactants and products which have the same symmetry.
It is possible to do this by exciting the electrons in the reactants using UV light.

It is thus of interest to examine the further application of the above cycloaddition employing cyclic enol ether as a dienophile to construct a fused quinoline ring system, not only for investigation of its extension, but also because of the occurrence of a number of physiologically interesting quinoline alkaloids as natural products.

Hydroxyallyl cation prefers to undergo cycloaddition reactions with dienes in a stepwise fashion.
Analysis of positive charge distribution in the intermediate formed after initial C-C bond formation provides a simple unifying method for rationalizing changes in reactivity as a function of diene nucleophilicity.
Interestingly, for the initial intermediate generated from 1,3-butadiene, [3+2] cycloaddition reactions are favored, but closure to form a C-O bond as the second step results in an intermediate that can undergo a low-energy Claisen rearrangement to form a 7-membered ring product identical to that expected from compact [4+3] cycloaddition.
